"Europe as a Now World" waB the subject, of an addroBB by Dr. Fred M. fling, head ot tho department of European history, at tho TucBdny con vocation Dr. Fling's popularity na n convocation spoakor was woll demon strated by tho slzo of tho audience that filled Memorial hall. Ills remarks ob this sub'Joot woro rccolvod with considerable Interest on account or the- reputation which ho bears na an authority OU" European conditions. As an Introduction, Dr. Fling (11b cussed tho superficial manner In which so many Amorlcan travolori? view conditions In Eurnpo. Fourtcor handrod years ago tho discovery of ,the now World matlo it possible tc 'placo.tho now continent In opposition to ike continent of Europo as clvlllzn Upn draggod and progress In Europe lay dormant. And so as tho Amerlcar travolor Journoys ovor the cdntlnon' b sepks out tho old historic spott and delights In delving among tho an tiquities that history and literature have acquainted him with. Ilo visits the Grecian capital In order to en lighten himself on Oreok mythology. In Pompoll ho strolls tho streets look tag for tho ruins of tho Vesuvius erup tion, ' whllo in Homo ho follows tho .guldo to tho old Forum. Tho imprcs - .alons ho thuB gota convinces him that European civilization Is effete, and Ik comos. to tho populur conclusion that "Amorlcn Id good enough for mo." America Leads. "Amorlca still loads In tho march of civilisation," Dr. Fling says, "yot I bollovo that wo nogloct to obscrvo the vital things that aro going on In Europo. If wo broak away from the faclnatlon of antiquities wo will find that Europo Is steadfastly ontorlng upon a now life and Is making prog reas In rapid Btrldos." Tho spoakor dwelt upon threo prin cipal phases to omphaslzo tho magni tude of this progress. First, the provalonco of peace throughout Eu ropo during tho last thirty years. Ar mies at tho present tlmo guarantee poaco Instoad of stimulating war. Socond, tho rapid growth of Industrial domocracy, and, third, tho revolution among rollglouB circles. It was pointod out how during the last thirty years the great German army has novor been called Into sorl oub active sorvlco, and that whatever troublo Europo has encountered It has boon confined to tho Dalkan states. Tho cause of International peaco has alBo boon furthered by tho support which has been given tho Hague con foronco Idoa. Discusses Socialism. In discussing his second point Dr Fling elaborated upon tho subject of socialism. Wo arc Inclined to view socialism as a , theory entirely, while In Europo It Is prnctlcably applied Crowdod conditions and tho scarcity of natural resources make socialistic questions in Europo the questions of tho day. "Tho socialist party," ho says, "Is tho one groat party that knows what It is about. There Is nr real difference between our two great parties sinco tho tariff hns ceased tr be a mattor of common dispute be tweon them. Instoad wo aro looking around for a new party and now Is buob. Flore Ib a groat party represoni ing millions, nnd It sconiB to me to br tho party of tho future, although to establish It might Incur a great revo lution." In conclusion It was shown that the church was In tho mlddlo of a groat crisis. And especial reforenco was mado to the Roman Catholic church. It scorns' to bo tho judgment of prom inent Catholics that tho church Is In touch with modern life. Four years ngo It lost Its political status In Franco and at tho present tlmo It Is having difficulty In holding Its own In this scnBO among tho so-cnllcd Cath olic countries. Then there Is becom ing to bo moro democracy In the In ternal government of tho church, the fight against modernism being ono of tho principal sources of strhfo within Its ranks. And as a third Indication of crisis tho strugglo between faith and science Ib becoming noticeable. QLEE CLUB TRY-OUT. Successful Meeting of Musicians Monday. Tho gloo club try-out Monday night waB a comploto success in that It fully aroso to Professor Kirkpatrlck's expectations. With tho addition or many new mon, It became evident that competition for glco club honors will this year surpass any such contest held in procodlng years. A new feature in tho management nnd organization of tho club Is that no permanent positions will bo assigned thlB year. Tho socurity which mem bers one time felt after tho first try out will be shattered at tho first ap pearance of a man who can sing "just a littlo bettor." Tho club will permanently organize In n few days, that Is In so far ns plan of procedure Is concerned, not mem bership enrollment. .
